In its basic form, The Platte Basin Parkway Project is a transit corridor that minimizes reliance on automobile while supporting sustainable modes of transportation. But this project goes deeper, it connects residents to the history of their water, the foundation of Nebraska’s ecosystems and societies. This project educates its visitors through interactive landscapes, visible water infrastructure, and curated references to the stories on the Platte Basin Timelapse website. The user can experience the journey of our water from Colorado to Wyoming to Nebraska just by traveling one transit corridor in Lincoln. Not only does this project connect us to where we are going, but it connects us to our place, Nebraska.
